To what extent do the Welsh Government’s draft culture policies, which were consulted on over the summer, help cultural bodies mitigate the impact of reduced funding?

That might be helpful, to help them access grants. Just one more question: to what extent do the Welsh Government’s draft culture priorities, which were consulted on over the summer, help cultural bodies mitigate the impact of reduced funding?

Is it less bureaucratic? Sometimes for arm’s-length companies it can be. And can you access other grants such as lottery grants or direct them to them better, do you think, than Government can?

What are the relative merits of funding national companies via the arts council, as is the case in Wales, and directly from the Government, as is the case in Scotland? Funding comes through you in Wales and directly from Government in Scotland.

Just coming in on that, so, you've got a new Minister who's in charge of skills. He comes under the business portfolio now. And in Ireland—we just went on a visit—they see the arts as part of business, basically, bringing money into Ireland and being really…

And I know local authorities, like you say, they tried to use the well-being of future generations Act, saying it's statutory, but there were arguments and push back. But on the libraries, there's certain legislation going back quite a few years, which they…

You touched on the arts being statutory and creative industries and culture, so, what would that look like, do you think? And how could we go about that?

It's overall morale. I guess, if people are trying to communicate with concerns, then it can be really difficult. So, I guess that's what this relates to.

We discussed earlier that the UK has one of the lowest spending on culture and the arts amongst EU nations, and we can't access Creative Europe funding either at the moment. So, as a committee, we want to try and follow that up as well. That's really…

Previously, it was mentioned that there has not been much engagement with the Welsh Government. I know that Jane Hutt, the Minister, was visiting the week after me. Has engagement increased now with the Welsh Government? And also what changes would you like…

On my visit, what struck me is that it's not just a library of books; it's a library of things—so many maps, but the paintings as well. I saw the Canaletto exhibition. I was able to see a painting of Castell Dinas Brân in 1770, and Parys mountain. I was able…
